[Verse 1]
GWell I was doubling over the Dload on my shoulders was a Aweight I 
carried
with me Bmeveryday. Crossin' Gmiles of frustrations and Drivers a ragin',
APicken up stones I found along the Bmway.
GI staggered and I stumbled down Gpathways of trouble
I was Ahaulin' those souveniers of Bmmisery 
And with Geach step taken my Dback was breakin'  
Till I Afound the one who took it all from Bmme.
[Chorus]
G                              D
ADown by the riverside (down by the riverside) I laid my burdens down,
Now I'm Bmtravlin' light.
My spirit Glifted high DI found my Afreedom now and I'm BmTravlin' light
[Verse 2]
Through the Gdarkest alleys and the Dlonliest vallys
I was Adraggin' those heavy chains of Bmdoubt and fear 
Then with one Gword spoken the Glocks were broken
Now He's Aleading me to places where there Bmare no tears
